Background:-Cholecystectomy is now widely practised. There are various methods of pain relief. Aim of our study is to asscess the analgesic effect of intraperitoneal bupivacaine in laproscopic cholecystectomy. Material and Method:- A prospective randomized study was conducted in which patients were enrolled for group1 (20 ml of saline injected) and group 2 (20 ml of 0.5% of bupivacaine with adrenaline injected). Postoperative pain was assessed by VAS at regular interval, shoulder pain, and requirement of analgesic. Results:- results shows that VAS score was significantly low (p= <0.001 ) in group 2 at 1,4 and 8 hrs. Pain was low but not statistically significant in 12 and 24 hrs. Conclusion:- intraperitoneal bupivacaine reduces pain in initial postoperative period after laproscopic cholecystectomy
